For reference, did you get this resolved? Did you contact Epson for a Warranty Repair? Did they fix it?

Epson should have it listed by now, but dual 20amp 240v breakers. Same for an HP Latex. They're very picky, you'll need to be within a range of 230v and 240v I believe, no more no less and have proof of it with a volt meter or something. I had 245v total each line and needed to install a...

The way that Onyx connects is via IP address. Epson edge print allows choice of USB or Ethernet. So for ONYX the best way is to get the set IP from the printer after connecting DIRECTLY to the computer via Ethernet. (Ive found there can be a lag or communication noise to the printer if...

If that's your spectrum of device choices, I would do research on getting the Epson R5070 instead for the best of both worlds in terms of cost, time, ink durability, etc. It's a water based resin printer and will prob use similar power req as the Canon. I added 2x 240v 20a lines specifically for...

I second just running the plugin in the design software with your files and just building it into the print file so it's consistent forever. If you ever need to do the job again, it's ready and you're able to regardless of ONYX version or bugs.

I have the Epson R5070 and I can confirm the heads are user replacable. It's about $700 for the replacement head, and it lasts as long as a solvent might when you take care of it. Depends on use and what happens, it could be 2yrs, it could be 6yrs. But the average is usually about 3yrs in...

Orafol paper just wrinkles and warps. I print only graphics that will not be laminated with it. The warping is the paper and heat and there is no way around it except to use a different brand and model. ink needs to cure. You need to use something else such as Arlon 510 and better if you are...

Technically, with the cleaning solution to cap the heads in for repairing clogged heads, it just needs to be cleaned or flushed out, but essentially should be safe to leave it capped in the cleaning solution in storage mode when it powers off. I mean unless there is a completely different...

Leave some sort of material loaded in the machine with the clamp lever down and media selected. It should not have any fans running. Also +1 for leaving it always on. Put your sleep cycle to less time and then just leave it. It powers on to do the cleaning and cycling as needed. Otherwise, the...

You pay them to not break it. And when they do, they get more parts replaced for free. When you try to save and break things accidentally and not reprogram the ROM or other things correctly, you pay more than double to fix everything.

For the price and budget, not bad, especially if you're talking about used and calling it a better deal than a new bundle. The heads can be expensive to replace as normal for all printers, but Epson has some flat rate pricing modules now for service in case you need more things fixed, you get 1...

If your rush jobs are similar to mine, where you need it printed in the morning on a full roll, cut, trimmed, and packed for FedEx by 4pm, then this is the fastest printer and quality combination you'll ever own. BUT, you will NEED to purchase an ONYX license. The random rip times on the Epson...

No issues really, when it's too hot, I run multiple fans everywhere to keep things ventilated around the printer, and during winter for now (my garage is insulated), I just let the heater run a little longer for warmup, and the head takes a few minutes longer to warm up to optimal temp. Output...

As far as "canceling" the job, no that's incorrect. Also, the techs do not know for certain either. The Epson edge print software will not let you run a print job over 3hrs. It will require you to reduce the total print time to 3hrs or less. ONYX will have a cleaning run and then resume...

Mainly printing advertising posters and graphics for corporate brand clients. Super high resolution artworks with Brandi g guideline colors to try and match as closely as possible. Also, just everything else usually flat. Have canvas samples as well and they're just as amazing. No car wraps or...
